Well of course, Al Gore is a politician not a scientist who made a useful film that helped publisize the issue, particularly in the US. And your reference list should run to thousands if you want to give credit to those who worked on the science not just a few US institutions.

All the numbers have been fudged ! The ocean level hasn't risen a millimetre , a few boats made it through the NW Passage in 2013 with the help of an ice breaker but those days are gone as we have entered a regular 400 year solar minimum cycle 3 years ago. Last one froze the Thames River 50 years in a row well documented in old paintings and Shakespears writings. The proof of this is in the 2 million years history in the Green Land ice core samples, Thousands of years in tree ring records. More Millennia in ocean floor sediment core samples. These solar minimums can be correlated with with crop failures which led to most Dynasties collapsing. The proof is out there. Next winter is going to be a real doozer !

As I recall Al Gore predicted that there would be NO polar ice left by the year 2013 ! We now have more Ice and polar bears than ever before ! WTH ?

Actually Al Gore just made the internet free for the public. We are finally getting over that massive giveaway, thank god. Net neutrality has really hampered innovation and profit for internet providers.

The level of ignorance here is breathtaking. There is an old fashioned thing called a book. It contains reliable information. I suggest you try reading one. I am leaving before I get mad and say something rude

You might disagree with the science, or his political views, but his motives are clearly not personal profit.

Al Gore has put “every penny” he has made from the films and from his investments in green technologies, into the non-profit Alliance for Climate Protection, which campaigns for solutions to climate change.

Floating Homes. That’s the answer right there. Get a home that floats.

that's why Al bought a condo on the beach in San Francisco bay . So he could watch it go under water.

Staying on the yachting theme.

Last year 24 yachts transited the North West Passage.

https://www.spri.cam.ac.uk/resources...estpassage.pdf

Last year one yacht circumnavigated the entire Arctic Ocean in a single season.

Home - The Polar Ocean Challenge

There is a forum on the North West Passage.

I will avoid the rest of the post as it seems inappropriate to this thread.

Al Gore's California home is 500 feet above sea level and about 2 miles from the beach.

His prediction was, I believe, correct.
His timing was wrong.
"Timing is everything." (Tallyrand)
It may take more like 100 years than 20, but even 100 years is an instant in global timing.
Your grandchildren will definitely see it.
We must think of them.

There is not more ice than ever before. It is just short of a record low.

On March 17, 2018, Arctic sea ice likely reached its maximum extent for the year, at 14.48 million square kilometers (5.59 million square miles), the second lowest in the 39-year satellite record, falling just behind 2017. This year’s maximum extent is 1.16 million square kilometers (448,000 square miles) below the 1981 to 2010 average maximum of 15.64 million square kilometers (6.04 million square miles).

if you look at the planets weather this winter ain't over yet.
Rorzech. Good luck I have been trying to explain this to them for several years.
